Today was the second day working! Almost everything is done, apart from a few details. I also printed out pretty, little Urbanside logos and cards!! 😀 Plus, the day’s best thing was that I ran into ISON and STOR at the train to school! One normal day on your way to school and you happen to see some of the most famous rappers in this country. Last week I ran into Aki from Labyrint and Amsie Brown 😀

In a couple of days we have our öppet hus exhibition in college and I started working today on what I want to present. It will be a very big poster with the most known pictures on my blog, from all my favourite artists and from many different events like hip hop battles, gigs, festivals, release parties. Who will be included – exposed in it are : Mando Diao , Hoffmaestro, Sugarplum Fairy, Alpis, Södra sidan, Näääk , Nimo, Kartellen, EASAS (En annan sida av Sverige) , Max Peezay and Matte Caliste. There is also going to be a short text presentation of it which more or less goes like this : “The main idea for my project was to inspire people who live in other countries, through the swedish hip hop and the life in the suburbs of Stockholm, just like I was when I lived in Greece”. Also to introduce this type of music and lifestyle to other people from an “outsider’s ” perspective, since I was not born and raised here in Sweden. There is a lot of material from live shows, hip hop battles and pictures from the most known suburb areas in Stockholm city” . Yup, that’s it! I took the below sneak pics to show how the process goes and I will be working on it tomorrow and on Thursday also. Feel free to come check out my project and everyone else’s in our class on the 3rd and 4th of may, 11.00 – 15.00 , Skärholmsgången 2 , T – Bana Skärholmen.

Last night one of my friends and classmates Jessica had her project ending at Lava, Kulturhuset. Jessica’s project had a lot of different parts, paintings, podcast episodes, art, creativity and hard work. The last episode of her podcasts was a live show that took place last night. I think that she is of the ones in our class that really managed to end their project within these 8 months of our course!
